I have windows XP Proffessional Edition. I have about 22 GB in my TEMP folder
in my Documents and Settings inside my user. I tried to delete all of it
using the Disk cleanup but it doesn't erase all, I still have about 13 GB of
..tmp files.

Can I delete them manually or this is not recommened?

Thanks for any help recieved.

Brenda S.

Reboot and re-log on. This will ensure that any temp files that were in use are
cleared. You can then remove them manually.
